I like to link to this old Google page, still online from when their search engine ads were all clearly labeled and in a separate column to the right of results with an offsetting background color. They correctly criticized the loss of trust that comes with selling search results, but the potential revenue from doing so never went away and they gradually succumbed.

(For the pedantic: yes, while they technically still label the ads and don't call it selling search results, can a double-digit percentage of users tell them apart from results? Especially with Google now selling so many results and having so many cross-promotions that the unpaid results are well below the fold.)
I'm curious about what relevant details get thrown away in translation to LLVM IR and that we can't add back with annotations. It's a shame that it's not possible to use these analysis tools on modern C++ codebases.
You call bullshit, but you dont provide any actual argument. What does that make your comment?
I have no problem with anyone plugging their business. I assume the entire purpose of a small project like this one is to generate leads. I just find it disappointing that it's one of the most unnecessarily bloated websites I've seen in my life, and you plug so many people involved in the project that should know better. If you're trying to make "The fastest way to quickly grab a lorem ipsum", then you need to consider the performance and the time it takes for the site to load, not just the UX. You should be able to get this down to 100ms load times, and closer to 50ms once cached. It shouldn't be seconds.
And, separate point, tangent to this:

I would guess that probably most people in that state of "no smartphone and no modern Windows/macOS/ChromeOS device", who would also actually care about installing some random bleeding-edge app, are people who are in that state by choice — i.e. they're not unable, but rather unwilling to use a mobile app, due to being extremely concerned with their privacy/anonymity.

And being that kind of person, is actually kind of incompatible with being a "member in good standing" of a matchmaking service (whether the matchmaking is for dating; for getting a band together; for finding a babysitter; for renting a condo; etc.)

Matchmaking apps only "work" insofar as they 1. can prevent catfishing, 2. can allow users to permanently block others who are harassing them, and 3. can allow users to report spammers/scammers/etc in such a way that a bad actor will be permanently removed from the platform altogether. Matchmaking apps that don't make these guarantees, end up being negative-experience generators and go down in bad-PR flames.

With the rise of botnets that use proxy IP addresses to register massive numbers of accounts on such services for nefarious purposes, the only way matchmaking services have been able to survive, is to require the user to at least complete initial registration through a device that can give a remote attestation that the user is not in ultimate control of the device — i.e. the device has a Trusted Computing Base and has not been rooted — and so the app is not being tampered with or fed false device metrics. (See also: browser integrity.)

Wanting to have absolute privacy/anonymity, is fundamentally incompatible with using a device that's able to make such guarantees.
Yep, despite all the talk of young people being "digital natives", installing apps from Android/iOS app store, taking pictures and chatting with friends doesn't teach you much that is valuable for office work.

My subjective experience is simply in a different category from math. I can't really explain it because subjective experience is ineffable. Asking to describe it mathematically is like asking to write a poem that tastes salty. You can try using salty ink, but the flavor isn't coming from the poem.

> If there was a perfect identical copy of you, down to the quantum level, would they have nearly the exact same subjective experience or not?

The copy would likely have similar experience and behaviour. So you could say that my behaviour is a mathematical function of the past in the sense that every input maps to a unique output. But it doesn't mean that which inputs map to which outputs can be fully described by math. Maybe I should say "defined" instead of "described". In any formal system, only countably many functions can be defined, but there are an uncountable number of possible behaviour functions. I think the universe's behaviour must lie in this uncountable space for any computable formal system.
The flipside of this is availability. Your T2 coprocessor is now permanently tied to your data. This means if the chip dies, there's no recovery unless you have a backup encrypted with a separate key (with its own confidentiality/availability tradeoff).

(And if anything else on your motherboard dies, Apple's official answer is "you're f*cked", since they refuse to do board-level repair.)

For the threat model of most users, where hardware-based targeted attacks aren't a big concern, this is a bad tradeoff.

Redis new data structure: the HyperLogLog (2014)
I am not belittling them. Just recognizing the fact they have no power to enforce anything on starlink.

It's not about what they "deserve". It is about what is physically possible.

I would love it if pirate internet via satellite that cannot be controlled by any government became a common thing in the US (and everywhere in the world). Unfortunately the US does have the enforcement capability to tell starlink what to do.
Does it? It sounds dramatic:

"At 911 million tonnes, the total emissions from aviation are 50 per cent higher the 604 million tonnes reported to the United Nations for that year."

But the article suggests that all the model does is fill in the blanks for countries that didn't report to the UN (China being the largest emitter in this category). Technically true that it is 50% higher than reported, but not 50% higher than expected

> Integrals in calculous is pretty much the beginning!

And maybe I would have found more interesting, and more importantly: applicable, concepts has I gone further. I loved math in Elementary/Middle/High School, it just got a lot more abstract for me in college and I've alway struggled with "Ok, how will I actually use this?".

> Fair take in any case. Colleges today seem far more politicized (and expensive) than back in my day. The whole space seems ripe for disruption as a lot of people just want to learn without all of the associated baggage.

Couldn't agree more. College today can still do at least 2 things decently well (if extremely overpriced) which are to expose you to different viewpoints, idea, and concepts as well as to give you a lot more freedom but with some "training wheels". You're often in a dorm and on a meal plan so you have somewhere to live and something to eat but you now set your own schedule and are able to make decisions that were often made for you (at least in my case). I'm grateful for that experience and the ability to make stupid mistakes without terrible consequences. I also learned a lot about the world outside my hometown that was critical to my development as person.

I'm close to going off on a, well worn (for me), tangent now about how we need to teach meal planning, financial planning, etc to kids but yes, I think college is ripe for disruption. I value higher learning and believe in it but what colleges have become is very gross.

Both companies are guilty of these practices. No need to defend Ecobee while using Apple as an example of why it is ok (even though it felt like “fuck you”).

Regardless of license agreements (Have you actually read yours?), it’s still a shitty practice, and people are rightly upset.

What upset you about the Apple tactics is somehow ok for other companies…how does that make sense?
1. Trends in mass production are moving -away- from China.

2. China was not deemed an adversary when it become the prima supplier of Li batteries.

3. The USA is perfectly capable at locking out competition the same way China did, why? Because national security.

The assumption that all new battery technology will end up being produced in China is naive, and baseless.

Also let's pay attention to the article, since it already outlines a number of reasons that I've merely highlighted.
Completely agree. It may be considered a "loss" if you encounter rude staff, but fighting back won't make you "win", even if you technically do. Your stress and mental state is much better if you just let some stuff go. Obviously not everything, but I'd say that probably goes for the majority of small annoyances in your life.

I don't get this move whatsoever, but if I were to be forced to play Devil's advocate, I'd point to the fact that the Supercharger network is merely the only game in town in the US, and globally, it will become a bit of a fart in the wind.

It's already happening in Europe, and in fact, it's a bit of an issue that the Tesla route planner prioritizes Supercharger stations over other operators.
If there were a "maybe" button, then you could just click "maybe" on every single entry (or have a bot do that for you), and thus end up with the thing that's anathema to the Tinder monetization model: a directory of all users, for you to browse at your leisure, filtering and sorting and picking and choosing from it as you like, rather than as The Algorithm likes. (Which in turn means they could no longer upcharge people to appear immediately in other people's queues, etc etc.)

---

Mind you, the more charitable argument is that allowing this would also massively decrease matches. Everyone would just say "maybe" to everyone else, because nobody is ever immediately sure that they like someone; the likelihood of two people both actually going back to their "maybes" to say "yes" to one another, and getting a mutual match, would drop to zero.

The Tinder model forces you to make a decision before you can move on, because the FOMO feeling generated by the possiblity of never seeing the person again if you press "no", is literally the only way to get a "yes" out of many people. An app based on a requirement of mutual matching, just wouldn't work without that coercion in place.

---

That being said, there's a lot you could do to ameliorate both concerns. You could limit the number of "maybes" someone could hold onto at a time; and you could make "maybes" expire, so that a person has to eventually make a decision on them before they can move on. (Instead of "maybe", perhaps call the associated action "review later"?)
Yeah, I wonder where that performance increase actually comes from. This[1] lists their optimizations.

My guess is mainly the integer optimizations. And I guess making sure that functions are always called with the same argument types. The other optimizations is already done by the JITs.

Porting HPC Applications to AMD Instinct MI300A Using Unified Memory and OpenMP
Since the device has to be powered on, but locked, and they're using a memory dump, they're referring to the AFU state, right?

From my understanding the BFU state is much harder given that the keys are not in memory but in the TEE. Although there has been exploits for that in the past, not sure if they can extract encryption keys.

It's also interesting to consider what's possible with arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities in early boot stages - would they be able to influence the ARM TZ?
I added 4 new chapters, and made other edits and additions in older chapters.
My favorite person on twitter (plinz) had advice that I loved and try really hard to follow that’s similar to this. If you see a discussion or comment online that bothers you or is frustrating, the best thing to do is not engage with it. Engagement causes that person to post more and effectively creates more of the content that you dislike.

E.g. if no one on the internet ever responded to pro Trump stuff, pro Trump people would get tired of yelling into the void with no reaction.

It's sort of a weird space we're in in the modern world, where you have to assume that anything on a "device" is ephemeral and fragile, and those of us concerned with data persistence on local hardware need to work at having a path to verifiably-restorable backups.

Cloud is a great solution for most people. But not really an option for "where do I put my decades-stale collection of old home directories" or "mbox files from email in the late 90's".

Calling security researchers grifters for sharing their work is ultimately harmful to users.

"Nevertheless, doctors in many areas are in short supply and it's incredibly hard to become a doctor."

At least in my country both of these things are caused by doctor's unions lobbying to limit student intake to the point where lots of perfectly capable people simply can't get admitted. It has got to the point where many go study abroad in other EU countries.

Anyway, even if everyone in the workforce was capable of the 5% hard work, companies could still fire lots of people, enough to give us universal basic income or third world war. Everyone in the workforce will be affected at that point.
Starlink can see the packet traffic. They ought be able to analyze which dishes are on each side of the conflict.

Current cloud providers have very different execution environments; the typical shared webhost had one Apache process with mod_php and every account was just a different system account. What you needed as a hosting provider was a way of preventing file_get_contents("/home/someone-else/secret.txt"), which is what open_basedir gave you. And system(nefarious-stuff), which is what safe_mode gave you.

Today that sort of thing is very rare; you will run in a virtual machine or container, and have an execution environment all to yourself.
I perfectly understand why a contact form would reject a mail with the domain "example.com". This is obviously not a valid email domain (and may be the default domain used as greyed example in the contact form).
> There are no infinite precision SDF implementations.

But it's relatively trivial to make one. SDFs are technically polymorphic over the concrete number type used. They are intrinsically infinitely scalable and of infinite resolution, and you then compute an approximation that can be rendered according to the output constraints/requirements.

Meshes on the other hand are intrinsically finite. You've already baked in a finite precision at design time. If you're outputting a mesh, you're throwing away information.

It's like the difference between vector and raster graphics. Vector graphics clearly have superior properties when it comes to scaling and other transformations. Raster images still find more use, but vector graphics are starting to see more use for good reasons.

> whatever, because it never matters.

It's starting to matter more, particularly in CAD modelling where model reuse, parameterization by finite element analysis and other physics models, etc. are starting to align better with SDF.

I won't pretend to know as much about games or CGI in film, but I expect as the tools mature, it will just make sense to start adopting them there too.

If you have fully reproducible builds, and if it's from the same commit, then it's probably okay. With multiple branches in play, and staging built from a different branch than production, the latter doesn't hold.
You really think I'm going to let you off the hook that easily? Before I answer any more of your questions you are either going to have to come up with some evidence to support your claim that I "repeatedly claim that [my] claims are necessarily factual" or explicitly concede that you were wrong. You can't have it both ways. There is nothing wrong with holding me up to a high rhetorical standard, but there is a lot wrong with doing it while not holding yourself up to the same standard.
